Yoga

Life is a boon bestowed by nature . It is not difficult to lead a tension free enjoyable life. One must know the real meaning of life, that is all. Fo learning living and enjoying life all provisions and opportunities have been provided by nature and society in all places and at all times. Maintaining the natureal rhythm and maintaining harmony between men and materials and other living beings are the important priciples of life. Practice in developing knowledge and streamlining the mental activities and disciplining the deeds are necessary throughout life. Bhakti yoga, the period of education, during ones early years. Karma yoga to perform ones duties during adulthood: Raja yoga to realise the truth and Gnana yoga for leadership responsibilities of society - all these are well delineated by our forbears of wisdom. Yoga is a meaningful term conprising all aspects of successful living such as maintaining harmoney between 1. Physical Body and life 2. Life-force and mind 3. Individual and society 4. Nature and will.
Hoarmony between body and life is maintaining physical health by following moderation in food, work, rest, sex and use of thought-force.
Harmony between life (soul) and mind is to streamline the mind in creative and positive thoughts and keeping it in peace and contentment.
Harmony between individual and society means to pratise the virtues of three principles - Morality, Duty and Charity. It also means to respect the birth-rights, freedom, security, needs and ambitions of others and discipline ones own activities and enjoyments. Harmony between nature and will is to respect the natural rhythm and consciousness in everything, whether inanimate or animate and deal with everything properly with the awareness of the Cause and Effect system of Nature.
These are the essential aspect of education to be learnt and followed by mankind for a happy, prosperous and peaceful life. All these aspects of education, practices, and follow-up are included in the SKY system.
In the world of different concepts, practices and habits, introducing the realities of life is difficult. But in course of time,the people will understand the value of SKY and obtain the benefits. We the members of World Community Service Centre must work perseverently and confidently for the emancipation of mankind and show a light of hope in the darkness of illusion, chaos, fear, disrurbances, conflicts and wars in human society.    - Maharishi
